11. Troubleshooting

This section provides answers to frequently asked questions.

Back to Table of contents.

11.1. Book Navigation

11.1.1. Why does Victor not always announce the same DAISY levels

when I press the 2 and 8 keys?

The 2 and 8 keys cycle through the DAISY navigation levels provided by the

producer of the book. Not all DAISY books have the same navigation levels.

For example, your book's producer may have only inserted level 1 (often used

for chapters) marks into the book. In this case, the 2 and 8 keys will

announce only "level 1" and "phrase". A phrase level is always included. Victor

can only navigate at the levels provided by the book producer. Often, the Go-

to-Page function will not work because many books are produced without

DAISY page marks. Also, the phrase jump is not the same for each book.

Some producers may include a phrase mark for a single sentence while others

may markup phrase as an arbitrary time jump. Still others have converted

older cassette books and inserted a phrase as an entire side of one cassette.

For books with little or no DAISY navigation marks, you will need to navigate

with the fast forward and rewind keys. The Rewind key is to the left of the

Play/Pause key and the Fast Forward key is to the right of the Play/Pause

Key.
